Beschreibung:

Manuscript, Tolaat Yaakov, kabbalistic commentary to the prayers, by R. Meir ibn Gabai [Yemen, 18th/19th century?]. Scribal copying in Yemenite script. Many dozens of interlinear and marginal kabbalistic glosses, which elucidate and explain the kabbalistic hints and secrets contained in the Tolaat Yaakov book. Presumably, these are copyings of the glosses of R. Yitzchak (Mahari) Wanneh, leading Yemenite kabbalist and Torah scholar in the 16th and 17th century (1575-ca. 1670), who wrote important compositions, including the Paamon Zahav commentary on the Tiklal, Rechev Elokim and Shaar HaShamayim on kabbalistic topics, halachic works and more. He reputedly wrote glosses to several works, including to Tolaat Yaakov (see: preface of his biography by R. Yitzchak Ratzabi, at the beginning of his book Rechev Elokim, Pe'ulat Tzadit institute, 1999). R. Yitzchak Wanneh's glosses remained in manuscript and have not been published. On the first page - the order of the Sefirot, illustrated and ornamented with a colorful border (leaf damaged). 72, [1], 73-75 leaves (slight mispagination), lacking end. 22 cm. Overall good condition. Tears and damage to first leaf, with loss of text on both sides. Stains and wear. Worming to last few leaves, affecting text. Binding damaged.
